  Pedophiles should be prosecuted in a court of law.

  Also, The Bad Place’s shitposting used this as an angle to recruit dummies into the right. Start with a popular statement and then link pedos to LGBT people etc. How subtle the rhetoric is varies, it frequently wasn’t very.

  Letting Lemmy develop the same self-righteous and performative circle jerk just isn’t a great idea… Not that’s it stopped any of the other circle jerking.

    So, after the first line i totally agree with you

    But about that girst line: a lot of pedophiles either are, or are above, the law. So they can’t be meaningfulky prosecuted.

      Then beat the heirarchy to death first and go from there.

        That is the law though. Law is hierarchy, hierarchy is law.

        You take the hierarchy and out; it becomes unrecognizable, it becomes something else.

  ANYWHERE with several thousand users will statistically have more pedos than that. It is something that afflicts around 1-5 percent of the population. Just imagine the person most closest to you being a non offending pedo. They might be, no way to find out.

  We managed to call it CSAM, why not call the people Childabusers if thats what we call out? After all there are enough people abusing children sexually without having pedophilia.

  Thanks for coming to my Tedtalk.
